Thank you all who have been praying for my family. I'm going to miss my aunt so much. I wrote this poem for her :) God bless you all!

Visions

 

You march

Into the room at Grandma’s

Your husband by your side

A tray of food in your arms

 

You smile

A small smile when Stevie cracks a joke

But just a small one

And in a voice that rings so much like a mantra,

You say:

“Shuddup, Steve.”

You shine with

Compassion for your parents;

With your love for your husband;

With actions of sacrifice;

And it makes us smile.

To hear that voice again

Would make those smiles worthwhile.

 

I still can’t believe it

That you’ve passed on.

From a lively, smart, funny woman

To a place in the Heavens;

It doesn’t seem real to me.

 

I can’t even begin to tell you

How much you mean to me

How the grief of your passing

Will emanate from all of us

For quite some time

It’s all a process of healing.

It’s a simple fact:

Missing you won’t get any easier.

Only Time and God’s Grace will

Make us able to bear it.

I will NEVER forget you.
